After seven days in the hospital they finally sent me home. The wound is still not completely healed and I'll be on antibiotics for a LOOOONG time, but it seems the infection is gone, at least for now. The key will be whether it comes back. If it does they will most likely have to remove the pacemaker/defibrillator.
Again, thanks for all the good wishes and prayers!
Don't feel as if you have to reply, but I know there are lots of my friends keeping up with this ordeal so wanted to let you know!
